NO DEMONSTRATIONS

Rugby, Saturday.

The last 400 of the British Army of the Rhino have arrived home. The British undertaking to com- plete the evacuation of the Rhine- land within 90 days from Septem- ber 14 has, therefore, been fulfill. led to the letter.

The last troops to leave Germany were Lieutenant-General Sir Wil- Han Thwaites, who has command- jed the Army of the Rhine since |April, 1927, his staff, nine officers, and 268 other ranks of the Second Battalion Royal Fusiliers, and about 100 details belonging to other units, which have served in the army of occupation.

The troops crossed yesterday morning from Ostend to Dover and left Dover in two trains. In one train the Royal Fusiliers went direct to Colchester, to rejoin their battalion. The General Officer Commanding in Chief and the re- mainder of the troops proceeded in the other train to London. From Victoría Station details of this party dispersed to rejoin their units.

The welcome home of the soldiers was of domestic rather than national in character. They were greeted at Colchester and Victoria Station by their wives and children. The only public demonstration took the form of enthusiastic cheering. -British Wireless Service.

HONG KONG TIDE

The tide table given below has been obtained by aid of the Tide-pre- dieting Machine, which includes 40 components for the better prediction of tides, from the result of the analysis of the tidal observations, taken at the Kowloon tidal observa tory under the direction of Dr. Doberck during the years 1887, 1888: and 1889.

The times and heights are given for Kowloon; but they may be used for the Victoria Naval Yard and Aberdeen, the differences being very small.

The times of high and low-water must not be considered to coincide change of current, the two phenomens with the times of slack-water and being quite distinct.
